William L. Coleman, Ph.D., Director of Collections and Exhibitions for The Olana Partnership, speaks on the broader phenomenon of artists who have shown sustained devotion to a specific landscape subject over many different canvases. This talk places Cole’s repeated responses to the scenery of Catskill Creek in the context of a long tradition of landscape painters. #HRMScholars
